Lewandowski is currently in Poland due to a legal proceeding against his former agent, Cezary Kucharski. On his way to the courtroom, he answered questions from Polish reporters about his possible return to the national team, stating he had other things on his mind.
Probierz had unexpectedly informed Lewandowski at the end of last week that midfielder Piotr Zielinski would now be the new captain of Poland. Lewandowski was "completely unprepared" for the call, "I was just putting the kids to bed," said Lewandowski. He felt that Probierz had "abused his trust."
Poland surprisingly lost 1:2 to Finland in the World Cup 2026 qualifiers without Lewandowski, and after three games, the team is only in third place in Group G.
